Just like last year, we are not offering a wristband package this time around. This way, you can pick and choose events without any pressure or financial burden when you only want to attend one or two events.
For those eager to experience more, we’ve got two bundle deals that give you maximum flexibility and great value for money.
We have made you a handy table so you know what your bundles will include…

How do I purchase a bundle?
So, we have phased releases of tickets, depending on which year you will be entering into. If you are joining Royal Holloway in September, you need to enrol now to ensure you can purchase your tickets.
The timeline
Bundles will go on sale in two phases:
Give It A Go

Alcohol not really your scene? No problem! We’ve got you covered. Our Give It A Go programme is packed with fun, alcohol-free events where you can meet like-minded people and try something new. Think Laser Quest, Paint a Plant Pot, cosy coffee mornings and more. The best bit? Give It A Go runs all year around, so there’s always something social to get involved with!
Freshers' Fair
We also have Freshers’ Fair, which happens every year at the Sports Centre, Founders Square and the SU. The ultimate place to explore all the societies and sports clubs we have to offer. Whether you’re into Ninjutsu, Pokémon, Rugby or something totally niche, you’ll find your people here.
And if nothing quite fits? You can start your own society or adopt a group.
